NO is a toxic gas that can damage the lungs with prolonged exposure and contribute to health conditions, such as asthma in children. Detecting NO is therefore crucial for maintaining a healthy environment. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are promising materials for NO gas sensors due to their excellent electronic properties and high adsorption energy for NO molecules.

This Review discusses recent advancements in the development of fourth-generation "Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs)" targeting resistance mutations, with an emphasis on the C797S mutation in "Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)". While first, second, and third-generation EGFR-TKIs have made significant progress in overcoming EGFR kinase resistance, the emergence of the EGFR-C797S mutation poses a substantial challenge, particularly in the context of resistance to Osimertinib. Fourth-generation TKIs are classified into ATP-competitive, allosteric, and ortho-allosteric inhibitors, with the goal of enhancing specificity for mutant EGFR while minimizing off-target effects on wild-type EGFR to reduce toxicity.

The remarkable clinical success of third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) has significantly advanced the treatment landscape for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the emergence of the tertiary point mutation C797S poses a substantial obstacle to their clinical efficacy, leading to a dearth of FDA-approved targeted therapies for patients harboring this mutation. Addressing this pressing clinical challenge necessitates the development of novel therapeutic agents targeting the clinically challenging EGFR mutation.

Rainbow trout () is a promising cultivable fish species with significant potential for expansion. As a cold-water fish belonging to the Salmonidae family, it requires an optimal temperature range of 10-15°C for optimal growth. This study explores a method for producing sterile rainbow trout with maximum survival rates by using heat shock treatment to enhance growth characteristics and improve aquaculture practices.
